Strength and Conditioning in Sports: From Science to Practice
by Michael H. Stone Timothy J. Suchomel W. Guy Hornsby John P Wagle Aaron J. CunananA good sport scientist and coach must understand both the underlying mechanisms and the practical application of training principles. Strength and Conditioning in Sports: From Science to Practice is unique in that it covers both of these areas in a comprehensive manner. This textbook "connects" the mechanism with practical application. Selecting the appropriate training process is paramount to success in competitive sport. A major component of this textbook is the detailed explanations of developing that process from creating an annual plan, selection of the appropriate periodization model and how to program that model. In application, connecting physiology to performance can be enhanced by using appropriate athlete monitoring techniques. Although there can be overlap, monitoring can be divided into two components: fatigue management and program efficacy. One of the features of this text is the in-depth description of how the monitoring process should take place and how monitoring data can be used in program application. This exciting new text provides a comprehensive overview of the application of science to sport and will be key reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of strength and conditioning, athletic training, exercise physiology, human performance, personal training, and other related disciplines of sport science and kinesiology.

Strengthening Couple Relationships for Optimal Child Development: Lessons From Research And Intervention
by Marc S. SchulzThis volume bears witness to two important transitions. First, it emphasizes the dynamic importance of family transitions, particularly for the growth and development of relationships and each of their component individuals. It captures the processes by which the components of this complex social system change during the course of the transition and how changes in one component are linked to changes in the others. Second, and more broadly, this volume captures a critical transition in the larger research community. The contributors display a clear and equal partnership between intervention researchers and longitudinal observers of family systems that has developed over the past few decades. We understand, as family transitions unfold, that intervention is a critical strategy for understanding the links among family systems observed over time. We also understand that the outcomes of interventions are best followed as further development of the family system, not just successes or failures. Thus, intervention studies are enhanced by understanding the intervention as a major developmental transition, often superimposed on other family transitions.
